Chapter 363: Rush Current City's Luo Clan
Translator: jinzeffect
Although Li Fuchen couldn't use his qi, his physique was sufficient to clash against a low-level Reincarnation Realm martial artist's all-out attack.
Of course, right now, he could only resist against a 2nd level Reincarnation Realm martial artist's attack.
His body was only left with around 800 strands of dragon elephant power.
Once his dragon elephant power was fully depleted, then Li Fuchen would only be able to defend the all-out attack from a 1st level Reincarnation Realm martial artist.
Despite the case, it was simply a pipedream for a regular peak level Heaven Dipper Realm martial artist to break his defense.
"This kid is a body refinement martial artist. Furthermore, he is that type of formidable body refinement martial artist that can ignore the full strength attack of a regular peak level Heaven Dipper Realm martial artist." Far away, the blue-clothed elder had witnessed everything and was silently in delight.
With this kid here, there would be no need to worry about Luo Yan's life. But he wondered about the strength of this kid.
"Lao Si, don't bother about that kid, kill Luo Yan!" The husky man yelled.
(Note: Lao Si is literally mean Old Fourth, so it means no.4 in the seniority)
How could he not see that Li Fuchen is a powerful body refinement martial artist?
But body refinement martial artists had a weak point, and that was their monotonous attack methods. Furthermore, their strength might not be as powerful as their defense.
"Understood, Boss."
The stout man was extremely enraged, but he knew clearly what was the mission this time.
Swish!
With a flash, the stout man charged at Luo Yan and wanted to kill her as quickly as possible.
"Treating me as though I don't exist?"
The stout man was very fast, but Li Fuchen was faster. He didn't even activate the dragon elephant power and was merely using his qi. With an instant burst of speed, he obstructed the stout man.
"Such speed."
The stout man was appalled and he quickly slammed a palm strike at Li Fuchen.
"Die!"
Li Fuchen blasted a fist that had the formidable power of qi gathered on the fist.
Huff!
The palm force was penetrated and Li Fuchen's fist constantly expanded in the eyes of the stout man.
Exploding like a watermelon, the stout man's head burst open. Fresh blood and brains splattered towards the back and he was immediately dead.

"What? Killing in a single fist?"
The blue-clothed elder and the green-clothed man were astonished.
The husky man and the two other black-clothed peak level Heaven Dipper Realm men were also shocked.
Luo Yan was similarly stunned as well.
Li Fuchen might be disfigured, but from his looks, he couldn't be more than 30 years of age. Such talent and strength was even rare in the South Forest Martial Institution.
"Damn it. Retreat!"
The husky man made a prompt decision and announced for the retreat.
In just a short moment, the black-clothed men had all retreated, leaving behind a few corpses.
"Many thanks for saving my life. I wonder what is benefactor's name?" Luo Yan wiped the blood off the corner of her mouth and expressed her gratitude.
"Li Fuchen."
"Young Hero Li, I am Luo Song, this is Luo Yu. Thank you for the assistance earlier." The blue-clothed elder and the green-clothed man walked over and expressed their gratitude as well.
If Li Fuchen wasn't here, Luo Yan would have certainly be killed and they would have no way to explain to the Clan Head and the Elder Clan Head.
"I simply couldn't ignore injustice when I encounter it."
Li Fuchen had rescued Luo Yan for two reasons. Firstly, it was to uphold righteousness. Secondly, he wanted to understand more about this unfamiliar continent.
If this Luo Clan could casually send out two peak level Heaven Dipper Realm martial artists, then they shouldn't be a minor clan. It would give him some help to understand this unfamiliar continent.
"I have no way to repay the favor of saving my life. I wonder if you are willing to be a guest at my Luo Clan. My Luo Clan will definitely treat you with hospitality." Luo Yan invited.
Hearing what was said, the blue-clothed elder and the green-clothed man had also nodded.
Li Fuchen was still young and had the strength to instantly kill a regular Heaven Dipper Realm martial artist. It meant that he wasn't a regular individual and if the Luo Clan could build a relationship with him, it would be a good thing.
"Sure." Li Fuchen intentionally hesitated a little and nodded immediately after.
He must be too obvious or people might feel suspicious.
Just like this, Li Fuchen joined the fleet and headed towards the Rush Current City's Luo Clan with Luo Yan and the others.
Along the way, Li Fuchen had short conversations with everyone and gotten to know some useful information.
Firstly, this was the Violet Flow Kingdom's territory.
Secondly, the South Forest Martial Institution is the South Forest Region's only martial institution. If one wanted to enter that place, one required at least a 5-star bone frame. They would only occasionally take in those students with inferior bone frames but had astonishing innate potential.
Thirdly, the Luo Clan was one of the three major clans in the Rush Current City. The clan had two Reincarnation Realm martial artists.
"Violet Flower Kingdom?"
After knowing that this continent had kingdoms, Li Fuchen was rather surprised.
The East Unicorn Continent once had kingdoms too, but they were all extinguished.

As experts, none of them wished to be governed by kingdoms. Furthermore, kingdoms were handed down in succession and would be inherited by the royal descendants. This was something intolerable for the experts.
"This Violet Flower Kingdom should be extremely strong right!? I wonder if they have any absolute experts beyond the Battle Spirit Realm?"
This continent must have Battle Spirit Realm experts and Li Fuchen reckoned that there must also be absolute experts beyond the Battle Spirit Realm too. But he didn't know if the Violet Flower Kingdom had any.
The existence of the Violet Flower Kingdom surprised Li Fuchen, but the existence of the South Forest Martial Institution didn't really surprise him.
Martial institutions exist in the East Unicorn Continent too. But they were generally weak and were basically there to nurture talents for the sects.
But the South Forest Martial Institution had several Battle Spirit Realm experts and their influence were extremely powerful.
The thing that made Li Fuchen the most surprised was that Rush Current City actually had three major clans and every clan had Reincarnation Realm martial artists. What was this concept?
Back at the East Unicorn Continent, with the influence of a Reincarnation Realm martial artist, one could already be a sovereign of a region. But on this continent, a clan that had two Reincarnation Realm martial artists was only one of the three major clans of the Rush Current City.
Furthermore from the tonality of these people, Li Fuchen could hear that the Luo Clan was nothing special even if they had two Reincarnation Realm martial artists and it seemed to be the norm.
"I came from a foreign land. The city that your Luo Clan is situated in, is it a large city?" Riding the horse, Li Fuchen asked Luo Yan.
Luo Yan opened the curtain on the carriage and shook her head." The South Forest Regio has hundreds of cities and Rush Current City is only an ordinary city."
Hearing what Luo Yan said, Li Fuchen's face remained indifferent but his heart was extremely shocked.
A single region had hundreds of cities and every city had clans with overseeing Reincarnation Realm martial artists. Didn't it mean that a single region of this continent had the same strength as the entire continent of the East Unicorn Continent????
This was when he had yet to include the Battle Spirit Realm experts.
"This is truly a fearsome continent." Li Fuchen said in his heart.
Subsequently, Li Fuchen had unintentionally gotten to know that the horse that he was riding on was called the Unicorn Wildebeest
Unicorn Wildebeest were natural spirit beasts and not converted from demonic beasts.
As a class 3 spirit beast, the Unicorn Wildebeest weren't adept at combat as speed was their strong suit. Coupling with their extraordinary stamina, they weren't inferior to Heaven Dipper Realm martial artists in terms of traveling.
Rush Current City was very far and it took one whole week for the group to arrive.
Glancing from a distance, a majestic city was occupying a huge land. Li Fuchen reckoned that this city was several times bigger than the Cloud Mist City and might even be bigger.
From the looks of it, this continent's cities were basically around the same size and there weren't any smaller cities.
"Young Hero Li, we have arrived at Rush Current City."
The blue-clothed elder Luo Song and the green-clothed man Luo Yu let out breaths of relief.
During the trip, their minds were all tensed up and afraid mishaps might happen.
The Luo Clan weren't situated inside Rush Current City but on the outskirts.
The ones residing in Rush Current City was the top of the three major clans, the Su Clan.
A moment later, they arrived at a highland that was in front of the Luo Clan.
Li Fuchen was riding on the horse and overlooking the massive building complex ahead of him. There were mountains and rivers and the occupied area was gigantic. It was just like a small-scale city.

"Young Lady and Elder are back."
A group of Luo Clan's martial artists went over to welcome.
"Yan'er, you are finally back!"
A figure soared from the Luo Clan's complex and flew over rapidly.
It was actually a martial artist at the 1st level of Reincarnation Realm.
"Father!" Luo Yan revealed a joyous expression.
Once the figure landed on the ground, he immediately hugged Luo Yan.
Luo Yan somewhat resembled this yellow-clothed middle-aged man.
"Clan Head." Luo Song, Luo Yu, and others quickly greeted with respect.
This person was none other than the Luo Clan Head, Luo Zhan.
After letting go of Luo Yan, Luo Zhan took a glance at everyone and his eyes paused on Li Fuchen for a short moment. He then immediately asked Luo Song, "Luo Song, is everything fine along the way?"
When hearing the question, Luo Song narrated the situation during the journey to Luo Zhan and also introduced Li Fuchen.
"It must be the Zhang Clan that is doing all these. Hmph, they better not let me find the chance, otherwise, I will return them an eye for an eye." Luo Zhan gritted his teeth. If Li Fuchen wasn't around, the consequences would be unthinkable.
As Luo Zhan spoke, he cupped his hands towards Li Fuchen, "Young Hero Li, many thanks for your assistance. My Luo Clan owes you a favor. Please reside in our Luo Clan for a period of time, otherwise, I wouldn't feel good."
"Clan Head Luo is too polite." Li Fuchen cupped his fist too.
"Young Hero Li, this way please." Luo Zhan used his right hand to invite with a sincere attitude.
After Luo Zhan and the others entered, Li Fuchen followed behind.
The moment, Li Fuchen entered the Luo Clan, he felt his body passing through a layer of ripple and it felt mystical.
"There is actually a protection array?"
Li Fuchen finally understood how fearsome this continent was. Even an ordinary city's clan had protection array. Even if their foundation wasn't comparable to the Azure Water Sect, it wouldn't be that far off.
After entering the Luo Clan, there was concentrated heaven and earth qi which hit onto Li Fuchen's face. It seemed like the concentration was five times more than the outside world.
"Apart from the protection array, there is also a qi gathering array enveloping the Luo Clan."
On the East Unicorn Continent, only the top ten elite factions would have qi gathering array. It could gather the qi within the radius of dozens of miles to a hundred miles away.
The interior of the Luo Clan looked incredible. Along the way, Li Fuchen saw a small herb garden.
The herb garden was planted with mystic class herbs.
The East Unicorn Continent's land was barren and even mystic class low and mid-tier herbs were extremely rare. Mystic class high and peak-tier herbs were basically only found in hidden domains.
This small herb garden was filled with mystic class low and mid-tier herbs. Even though there wasn't a single stalk of high-tier herb, it was still astonishing.
"I feel like a country bumpkin." Li Fuchen let out a bitter smile.
After going through multiple pavilions, Luo Zhan paused and spoke to Luo Yan, "Yan'er, bring Young Hero Li for a stroll in the Luo Clan. I will also leave it to you for his residence arrangements."
"Yes, Father."
Luo Yan revealed a smile and said to Li Fuchen, "Li Fuchen, this way please."
"Sure." Li Fuchen nodded.
After seeing the duo leaving, Luo Zhan and the others headed to the Luo Clan's main hall.
The ambush this time wasn't a small problem and had to be treated seriously. Furthermore, repaying the favor to Li Fuchen was also another matter and they must let him be disappointed.
Chapter 364: Seven Color Continent

"Li Fuchen, you don't seem to be from the Violet Flower Kingdom?" On a small path in the Luo Clan, Luo Yan inquired.
Li Fuchen replied, "I am indeed not from the Violet Flower Kingdom. I used to reside in another kingdom and I had a master. When my master was killed by his enemies, I got disfigured as a result and fled to the Violet Flower Kingdom." Out of no choice, Li Fuchen fabricated a lie.
Luo Yan nodded and spoke with an apologetic tone, "I am sorry to remind you of your sorrowful past."
She could see that Li Fuchen had been injured, but she didn't imagine he was harmed by his enemies and even his master was killed.
"It's fine. It has been a very long time. My injuries should be recovering soon as well." Li Fuchen responded.
Not wanting to pester on this topic, Luo Yan pointed at a lake at the front and said, "That place is where the qi is most concentrated in our Luo Clan. The concentration is 70% more than the outside world. There are plenty of spirit fish that are being bred at the lake. Let's go over and have a look."
"Sure." Li Fuchen followed behind.
…
On the eastern outskirts of the Rush Current City, Zhang Clan.
"Clan Head, the Black Mountain Four Tigers have failed. It is said that a disfigured youth expert emerged and killed Short Leg Tiger in a single fist." In the garden, there was a middle-aged man with his hand behind his back and behind him was a scout reporting the information.
"Useless." Zhang Yun's face flushed with anger.
After missing out on such a good opportunity, it would be ten times harder if he wanted to kill Luo Yan in the future.
Zhang Yun's expression altered multiple times before he transmitted a message, "You will go to Black Cloud City and contact the Venomous Sting Organization's branch. Ask them to arrange a low-level silver medal assassin."
"Low-level silver medal assassin?" The scout got a shock.
The Venomous Sting Organization was the Violet Flower Kingdom's famed assassin's organization. Within the organization, the assassins were separated by three different classes, the bronze medal, silver medal, and gold medal.
The bronze medal was corresponding to the Heaven Dipper Realm.
The silver medal was corresponding to the Reincarnation Realm.
A low-level silver medal assassin would mean that the assassin had the strength of low-level Reincarnation Realm.

Such cultivation was already enough to kill a middle-level Reincarnation Realm martial artist.
A huge cost was needed to hire a low-level silver medal assassin. It was basically impossible without 10,000 low-grade spirit stones.
10,000 low-grade spirit stones was an enormous sum to the Zhang Clan. Wouldn't it be making a huge fuss just to deal with a junior generation that had yet to fully develop?
Of course, as a scout, he knew that he simply had to obey and wasn't allow to have questions.
"Understood." The scout acknowledged his orders and left.
Zhang Yun forcefully breathed out a melancholic breath and silently though, "A junior generation might not be fearsome when she hasn't fully developed yet. But once she is accepted by an elder of the martial institution as an in-room student, it will be terrifying. I have to eliminate her to prevent future disasters. Otherwise, in just a few years, the Zhang Clan will be extinguished."
(Note: An in-room student is something similar to a personal disciple where the master will personally teach the disciple/student)
As for himself, if he could do it personally, he would definitely do it. But it was a pity that the risk were too high.
Firstly, the Zhang Clan's vicinity was filled with Luo Clan's scouts.
Secondly, if he didn't succeed, it would truly be the same as having an acrimonious falling out. If that happened, the Zhang Clan wouldn't only face the wrath of the Luo Clan, they might also face severe punishments from the South Forest Martial Institution.
…
Night had arrived and the Luo Clan were filled with splendid lights and was extremely lively.
At the feast, Luo Zhan had repeatedly offered toasts to Li Fuchen as an appreciation to Li Fuchen for saving his only daughter, Luo Yan.
At the same time, some of the beautiful young ladies of the Luo Clan had been arranged by the seniors to come over and offer toasts while their faces were flushed red.
They didn't mind Li Fuchen's looks. He might be disfigured and looked rather horrific, but there were ways to recover. Even if he couldn't recover, they didn't mind too. He was an expert that was at the peak of the Heaven Dipper Realm before even 30 years old. He would be a prodigy no matter where he went and his future was limitless. How could they be fussy? Even if they had to be a concubine for Li Fuchen, they would be more than willing to do so.
After everyone was intoxicated and dismissed, Li Fuchen returned to his dwelling which was an exquisite and luxurious small courtyard.
"Young Hero, this is bestowed by the Clan Head."
A Luo Clan's guard walked into the courtyard and handed over a storage bag before leaving immediately.
Li Fuchen smiled and opened up the storage bag.
There was nothing inside the storage bag apart from a pile of low-grade spirit stones. There was an estimation of 2000 or so.
"They are truly generous."
2000 low-grade spirit stones wasn't a small sum. This continent might be 100 times bigger than East Unicorn Continent, but there were plenty of Reincarnation Realm martial artists too. No matter how much resources they have, it still wouldn't be enough to distribute. 2000 low-grade spirit stones should be all the wealth that a low-level Reincarnation Realm martial artist would possess.
Li Fuchen kept it with a clear conscience.

These 2000 low-grade spirit stones were something that he deserved.
After one night, Li Fuchen felt that his injuries had recuperated a little.
Early in the morning, Luo Zhan came over personally to greet Li Fuchen.
"Is Young Hero Li living comfortably?" Luo Zhan inquired.
Li Fuchen nodded and replied, "Luo Clan Head is truly considerate. The Luo Clan's environment is excellent, how can I not have a comfortable stay?"
Luo Zhan laughed heartily. "Young Hero Li, let us have breakfast together!"
"Sure." Li Fuchen simply agreed.
When at the meals hall, Luo Yan was around and so was her mother. Her mother was a middle-aged married woman but still attractive.
Halfway through the meal, Li Fuchen put down his chopsticks and asked Luo Zhan, "Luo Clan Head, I would like to ask if the Luo Clan or the Rush Current City has any elixir that can expel impurities from the body? It will be best is they are of the mystic class high-tier. I am willing to purchase them with spirit stones."
The impurities in his body was the biggest hidden damage. As long as he couldn't expel them, he would never be able to strengthen his body.
At the current juncture, he couldn't make use of his qi, hence, body refinement was the only thing he could rely on.
"Mystic class high-tier?" Luo Zhan frowned and spoke in an apologetic tone, "My Luo Clan does have mystic class high-tier elixirs, but we don't have any that can expel impurities in the body. I am afraid that Rush Current City wouldn't have any either. Perhaps the top ten cities of the South Forest Region might have them."
"The South Forest Martial Institution has elixirs that expel the body's impurities but one has to become a South Forest Martial Institution's student first. It is regretful that the next enrollment will be three months later." Luo Yan said.
"A student of the South Forest Martial Institution?" Three months was too long. Li Fuchen planned to head for one of the top ten cities in the South Forest Region. Of course, his injuries had to be fully recovered first.
After finishing breakfast, Li Fuchen returned to his courtyard.
His awareness entered his dantian and he could see a small bundle of flaming qi and the true inferno qi that was like the sun.
At first look, the true inferno qi was huge and imposing. But only after making contact with the flaming qi, one would understand how horrific this bundle of flaming qi was.
If the true inferno qi was like a violent and ferocious beast, then the flaming qi would be a violent dragon. Once it was infuriated, it would tear up heaven and earth, incinerating everything.
"My current cultivation will never be able to deal with the flaming qi. Am I going to continue wasting time like this?"
Li Fuchen was unwilling to resign to his fate. With his cultivation speed, if there were no delays, he wouldn't need much time to progress to the 9th level of Heaven Dipper Realm. But right now, he couldn't cultivate and was wasting the ideal cultivation environment in this continent.
"Heaven will always leave a way through. There must be something I can do." Li Fuchen withdrew his awareness.
Seeing that there was nothing to do, Li Fuchen went to the Luo Clan's library to take a look.
He came from the East Unicorn Continent and didn't know anything about this continent. He couldn't simply ask and reading books was undoubtedly the best way to know about this continent.

The Luo Clan's library had a total of four floors. The first floor had an ordinary collection and didn't any martial arts manuals. Hence, Li Fuchen didn't have any obstruction when entering the first floor.
The first floor had plenty of books and all sorts of books.
Like biographies, folk legend, poems, songs, and cultural history.
Li Fuchen read as though he was intoxicated.
To him, it was rather interesting to find out the history of a continent.
For the next few days, Li Fuchen had read almost all the books on the first floor of the library, this was mainly due to his ability to read ten lines at the same time. He had extreme reading speed and could clearly memorize all of the contents. He wouldn't have any problem in reciting the backward.
"So this continent is called the Seven Color Continent and it isn't an entire continent. It is a continent that is connected by seven pieces of continents. The continent that I am on right now is called the Red Soil Continent. It is governed by the Red Rainbow Sect and they have plenty of experts beyond the Battle Spirit Realm. Or should I say that they are experts of the Primary Sea Realm? Among them, the strongest is the Red Rainbow King, a King at the 8th level of the Primary Sea Realm. He is matchless with his Red Rainbow Sword Art and has once used a single slash in the Violet Flower Kingdom to create a canyon."
"The Red Soil Continent has seven great kingdoms. The Violet Flower Kingdom is only a middle-class kingdom. Among the royalties, there is a Primary Sea Realm King, but only a 1st level Primary Sea Realm King."
"In the Violet Flower Kingdom, there are four great clans, two great martial institutions. The strongest among them is the Ancestors of the peak level Battle Spirit Realm. Apart from all these, the Violet Flower Kingdom has 24 regions and each region has a martial institute."
After knowing the overall information of the Seven Color Continent, Li Fuchen was deeply affected.
The Seven Color Continent was much more incredible than he had imagined and it was at a magnificent scale.
It turned out that the realm above the Battle Spirit Realm was the Primary Sea Realm.
The martial artists of the Primary Sea Realm were addressed as Kings, in correspondence to Demon Kings of the demonic beasts.
The strength of a king was terrifying according to the information in the biographies that Li Fuchen read.
It wasn't exaggerating to say that these Primary Sea Realm Kings would be able to destroy the entire East Unicorn Continent. The people over there had to treat these kings as gods.
But in the Seven Color Continent, these kings weren't considered gods as there were plenty of kings here.
In addition, Li Fuchen assumed that this continent had plenty of kingdoms. He didn't imagine that the Red Soil Continent only had seven kingdoms and each kingdom had Primary Sea Realm Kings.
Just on this point, it wasn't as lively as the East Unicorn Continent.
The East Unicorn Continent had the Hundred Sects and there were plenty of tangled and complicated relationships.
As it turned out, Battle Spirit Realm experts were addressed as Ancestors, and the Red Soil Continent had an Ancestor List.
Those that were listed in the Ancestor List were basically peak level Battle Spirit Realm Ancestors. Those that weren't at the peak level of the Battle Spirit Realm would be those heaven-defiers that could exceed levels to kill their enemies in battles.
"The Seven Color Continent has a total of seven continents. There isn't much information on the other continents except the names. But just the Red Soil Continent will be enough to cause all those so-called pinnacle experts in the East Unicorn Continent to be flabbergasted!" Li Fuchen laughed silently.
***
In just a wink of the eye, Li Fuchen had been residing in the Luo Clan for a week.
After an entire week, Li Fuchen's injuries were completely recovered. The burn marks on his body had also vanished as he restored his original looks.
"So he is actually so handsome and refined."
When Li Fuchen walked on the bypaths in Luo Clan, those young ladies of the Luo Clan would reveal infatuated expressions.
Li Fuchen was originally very eye-catchy. Now that he had restored his original looks, he was definitely outstanding and had an indescribable elegance of a prodigy.
